Senator HILL (Environment and Heritage) (6:42 PM) —Again, it does not relate to this bill because this bill is to provide a mechanism to bring into force within the Commonwealth measures that have been agreed under the 1994 bill. Certainly, forestry does lead to emissions. They were included within our inventory and they will be included within the targets that we will need to meet under the Kyoto protocol. So we are addressing that in a comprehensive way, looking at both sources and sinks. It will require considerable changes in practice to achieve that goal but, as I said, the government is seeking to implement that goal through other means.
